Episode 11: Each one teach one - reducing youth violence through lived experience with Dayton Powell

In this week's episode of The Empire Fighting Chance, Neil talks to Dayton Powell about youth violence, gangs and criminality. Dayton has lived experience of this having spent time in prison for violent offences.

Today, he supports young people to move away from criminality into alternative positive lifestyles via his organisation Each One Teach One.

Dayton also works at Empire Fighting Chance delivering programs at the gym, helping teenagers overcome anxieties associated specifically with knife crime. So, why do young people carry knives? Why do they join gangs? How can we understand this better and how can we support and redirect positive outcomes for young people?
